Python API for SliceMatrix-IO

Introduction

SliceMatrix is the next generation of machine intelligence eco-system. SliceMatrix provides an end-to-end machine intelligence Platform as a Service (PaaS) so that users can seamlessly and easily develop machine intelligent applications and systems that are hosted directed on the cloud.

For example, the following code snipper fits a KernelPCA model to intraday price data for over 500 financial instruments. This is an example of manifold learning, a family of algorithms which discovers the underlying structure of high dimensional data. Manifold learning is designed to handle even highly nonlinear data structures such as financial, social, and medical datasets.

<p>The foundation of SliceMatrix is the graph model: this is a powerful mathematical abstraction which can represent any entity to entity relationship. For example, there is mounting evidence that there are systematic differences in returns between highly connected and outlier stock symbols within the S&P 500. One could easily rank stocks by their systematic importance and construct appropriate portfolios using one of SliceMatrix's graph algorithms, such as the Minimum Spanning Tree</p>
